Guests handled food with their fingers. Each dips a "sop" or piece of bread in the dish, and takes up therewith a portion of meat or other contents of the dish. Judas' dipping in the same dish as the Lord betokened friendly intimacy. To hand a delicate morsel from the dish was a compliment (John 13:25-27; Matthew 26:23).
